How AVB, AES67 and proprietary solutions like Dante address the challenges of using asynchronous internet networks to distribute audio.
IP is an enabling technology that allows broadcasters to integrate software solutions into their workflows. However, the plethora of SDI and IP workflows that are now coexisting in broadcast infrastructures means that technologists and engineers must look for new methods when designing their facilities, especially when considering the real-time nature of live captioning.
This is the first of a multi-part series exploring the science and practical applications of RF technology in broadcast.
Recognizing that a 53-foot expanding mobile unit is often out of reach financially for many tier 2 sporting events - e.g., women’s college volleyball or professional pickleball - production companies that offer such high-end resources are expanding their horizons with lower cost, highly portable and as-needed options that fit the bill.
NVP, one of Italy’s largest broadcast service suppliers, has fully tested and brought online its NVP Innovation Hub based on open standard SMPTE ST 2110 with GV Orbit orchestration, Grass Valley’s AMPP SaaS platform, redundant GV Fabric IP switching, a Kahuna 9600 production switcher with a 3 M/E Maverik control panel, a Kaleido-IP multiviewer, and Audio Live for up to 2048x2048 audio routing of AES67 IP streams.
To be able to see a moving object reasonably well, the eye tracks the object and the smart camera operator will pan the camera to keep it still in the frame. Eyes and cameras have in common that they can only do this for one moving object and everything else will be seen less well.
LTN has delivered 1 million live video feeds via the LTN Network, the company’s proprietary multicast-enabled global IP network that delivers <200ms latency and 99.999% reliability.
All devices on a network are referred to as ‘hosts’ and they all need to be configured correctly.
